Type V: This extremely rare condition is characterized by the absence of the cerebellum and the herniation of the occipital lobe into the foramen magnum.

This places both structures into an incorrect position in relation to the foramen magnum.

Type IV: This rare defect does not involve herniation but rather occurs when the cerebellum and brainstem fail to develop properly during fetal development.

In addition to the cerebellum and brainstem, a portion of the occipital lobe (the visual processing part of the brain) may be involved.

Type III: The herniation of brain tissues will cause occipital encephalocele, a sac-like protrusion extending outward from the base of the skull.

It a more serious form of the defect usually accompanied by spina bifida.

Type II: Also known as the Arnold-Chiari malformation, the herniation is more profound and involves both the cerebellum and brainstem.

In some cases, a portion of the brainstem may be involved.

Type I: The herniation (bulging) of one or both cerebellum tonsils will extend into the upper spinal canal by more than 5 millimeters (roughly 1/4 inch).
